Make Your Eyelashes Appear Longer

Applying eyelash extensions isn't the only way to make your lashes stand out. There are ways to make the lashes appear longer and fuller without the headache of false lashes.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Lash Curler
  • Lash Primer
  • Mascara
  1. Step 1

    Apply your make-up as usual stopping with your eyeliner. (Check out my article on applying eyeliner)

  2. Step 2

    Take the eyelash curler and start at the base of the lash. Walk the curler to the tip of the lash by opening and closing the it and applying light pressure. Applying to much pressure can cause you to create a crease line in the lash.

  3. Step 3

    Apply the primer to your eyelashes with a mascara brush. You can find lash primer on mascara products that have double ended tubes or sold separately. It is better to buy the lash primer that is white and dries semi clear. This will help you to see if you missed any lashes during application. Let dry.

  4. Step 4

    Brush on your mascara starting at the base of the lash. You can move the brush from side to side before moving to the end of the lash. This will help separate any lashes that might have dried together. Apply as many coats as necessary until desired lash length and fullness is reached.
